A Life Of Fear

A life of fear
is a life of passion.
Chasing freedom,
escape and peace.
Danger doesn't cease,
when all around lie traps and daggers,
enemies and rivals,
death and pain,
round every corner.

Every exit must be watched.
Stay awake!
Alert!
Hop to scotch.
Panic saves your life each day.
Avoid and flee!
Run away.
On guard, afraid.
Relax or you'll be killed or raped.

There is no love,
there's nothing here.
The only feelings are none
and fear.
